The one is clamped directly via SATA and the other via USB.
When clamped directly, the speed should be slightly higher
Well, the one I've got will be directly clamped. However, it is much thinner than my normal HDD. However, there is a difference at speed
Mobile HDDs are 2.5 inch HDDs with low overall height eg 7mm. Use this name but exclusively Seagate
Is the mobile slower than normal?
Only one USB port is required.
Sorry, I meant with the mobile Hdd, a laptop hdd. So this is also internal but much thinner than a normal. Is there a performance difference or similar?
It's on the record, HDD I wouldn't buy anymore, just SSDs.
I don't know.
yes, fully agree with you, but the hdd of my ps4 has broken and I didn't want to order a new hard drive or similar
A mobile is in an external housing and therefore mobile
the mobile hd I have to connect internally. Is there any difference in speed or something?
